Married My Ex’s Alpha Uncle

As soon as we entered, they both stood to their feet quickly and bowed to my brother. I raised my brows, surprised by their level of respect. "Guys, I'd like you to meet my sister," he introduced. "These guys have been pretty much like my family since my mother died."

I gave him a sad nod and smiled at the rogues.

"It's nice to meet you. I'm Silver," I introduced myself.

They looked at me warily for a moment before one of them stepped forward.

"I'm Ronald," he said, bowing his head at me.

"And I'm Leroy," the other one said.

I looked around and noticed the one I considered the leader to be missing.

"Doug is outside smoking," Leroy explained as if he could read my mind.

I nodded thoughtfully.

"Come with me," Scott said, pulling my arm along with him. I followed him down a hallway until we reached a doorway. He opened the doorway, and I noticed it led down a dark stairwell. I hesitated before following him, not sure exactly where he was leading me. He noticed my hesitance and he smiled.

"It's okay. I won't hurt you," he assured me, motioning again for me to follow him.

I swallowed the lump in my throat and nodded at him as I followed him down the steps. As we reached the bottom, he turned on the light and I was amazed to see an open space that looked like it was used for magic. There were potions on shelves along the wall and a ton of books on shelves that made the space look almost like a library. There were comfortable couches and cushioned seats as well.

It made the area look like a lounge almost. I was impressed by the amount of effort it took to create such an area.

"Wow..." I said, amazed. "This place is incredible."

"This is where I practice my magic," he said with a shrug. "I recently created a potion that will put everyone under my control." My mouth dropped at his words.

"Put everyone under your control?" I asked him, dumbfounded.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

He nodded; humor clear on his face.

"Yes, I'm going to change the scents of all the higher-ranked wolves and then I'm going to force everyone else to fight them, he said, a sickening smile spread across his thin lips. "Once they are all fighting, it'll be the distraction I need to kill Elliot and his sister once and for all. Plus, as an added bonus, I'll be able to take over everyone's packs once the Alpha's are dead. Of course, I'll need your help ruling over the werewolf community," he added that last part with a wink and I felt my stomach twist.

I kept the disgust off my face though and swallowed down the bile that rose in my throat.

"You're still with me, aren't you?" He asked, staring at me with a questionable look. I blinked a few times and smiled.

"Yes, of course," I said, trying to sound convincing.

"Good," he said with a widening smile. "Because in order for this potion to work. I need your blood."

"You need my blood?" I asked, my brows raised.

He nodded.

"I needed my blood as well, but to complete the spell, I also need your blood. I'm distributing it like a curse. Nobody will ever see it coming," he said, laughing like it was the funniest thing he had ever said.

"And when exactly are you going to do this?" I asked him.

"Tomorrow night. It's the full moon," he told me. "Everything will be stronger tomorrow."

My heart dropped into my stomach; tomorrow was a full moon? That meant I was going to turn into a monster. I suddenly felt nervous and jittery.

"This time tomorrow; we are going to rule everything," he said with a broad smile. "And you will have everything you deserve."

"I see," I said, staring at the mess of potions on the counter.

He put his hand on my shoulder as if

he was trying to reassure me but then his eyes spotted something that made his eyes darken and the look of fury rose on his face as he glared at me.

"What the fuck is that?" He asked through his teeth.

Confused, I asked, "What?"

"On your neck," he hissed.

Instinctly, I reached my head up and touched my neck, and then I froze. Why hadn't I thought about covering this up? What was wrong with me? "You let that murdering asshole mark you??"
